SEND THIS OUT FAR AND WIDE! We must move to SAVE ORGANIC FARMS AND GARDENING! Let them know that as a LIBERTY LOVING COLORADOAN, that you are exercising your Constitutional right to let your voice be heard! Robert Kennedy and David Bender report on the horrific HR 875 and S 425, which is called “the Monsanto Dream Bill” and in essence threatens to put all organic farms and gardens out of business and institutionalize industrial farming and pesticide use. It creates minimum fertilizer amounts that farmers must use before their product can be put on the market. Rosa De Laro of Connecticut whose husband Stan Greenberg is a lobbyist for Monsanto is the Representative responsible for this bill. We have less than two weeks to generate enough upset to kill this bill and save our organic farms. Here’s the link to Bobby Kennedy: http://www.goleft.tv the part to listen to is: “Ring of Fire’s Weekly News Pt. 3″ Here’s a link that explains what the damage will be if this bill is allowed to pass: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epXNJNjYBvw Since we’re very interested in keeping organic farmers and farmers markets alive and well – please contact your US Representative and Senator and ask them for a “NO” vote on these bills.

Horrific HR 875 and S425 Monsanto Bill
Posted in Uncategorized
Beside being unconstitutional, this bill is criminal. Those who are voting for this bill should be impeached, or voted out of office at the very least.
Hopefully, the senate will be mores responsible than the House, whose actions are reprehensible.
